2008-12-07: Aragon Ballroom, Chicago, IL, USA
This is a live recording of The Smashing Pumpkins at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, captured on 7 December 2008 and released through nugs.net in January 2009. Chicago is the band's home city, which gives the show a particular significance.
It arrived in the period between Zeitgeist (2007) and Oceania (2012), a stretch when the band's studio output was quiet and the stage was where fans could follow what they were up to. For anyone who likes their Pumpkins in concert form, it is a document of that moment.
